The fine gentleman of Pyramid Scheme join Act One for both June shows, starting this Saturday at 9pm! They joined us back in February and Act One is thrilled to see them back. Meet the guys!
Pyramid Scheme is a three-man improv team comprised of Kevin Shimko, Ben Jaeger-Thomas (Cash Only, Agent Cooper), and Devin Horne (Haberdasher). Recipients of various high-fives from multiple supportive friends, Pyramid Scheme brings a unique voice to improvisation. Playing grounded, true-to-life characters who take you to the fringe and back.
Devin is an actor and improviser hailing from the St. Olaf College of Gatsby and Golden Girls’ fame. Devin enjoys working at a coffee shop, playing ultimate frisbee and speaking German, as well as furrowing his brow while asking Ben if life will ever be easier.
Ben likes you. He not only likes you, he wants you to like him. As an actor and improviser Ben can be heard on many radio and television commercials telling you what and where to buy certain products. It’s not his fault though really, you should probably blame the copywriters. They’re the ones who ruin everything. I mean right? It’s downright sad when you think about it. I mean come on, really? Self promotion?Kevin has been doing improv since before he was born. However,his mother’s uterus never made a great scene partner. Getting his start at the Charlotte Comedy Theater at the beardless age of 15, Kevin learned the ropes of how to be a penniless, starving, yet wickedly funny improviser. His dreams broadened and he moved to the city of New York to study acting at Marymount Manhattan College.
Act One is this Saturday night at 8pm!
Want to perform with some of The PIT’s best? You’re in luck! At the end of every Act One, three audience members volunteer to perform a monoscene with Dan Hodapp (Beige, Hodapp & Rothwell), Micah Sherman (Baby Wants Candy, Second City) and a special guest from The Scene. This week, Steve Siddell (Someday the Cake) joins us for this ultimate mix ‘em up, we call The Ensemble!
Plus 3 other indie teams perform one act plays too! Check out this week’s full line-up here!
SATURDAY!
